Big Gal Yoga
Big Gal Yoga: Exercises, Affirmations, and Poses to Help You Find Self-Acceptance and Empowerment | Valerie Sagun
2 posts | 5 to read
Instagram star Valerie Sagun is a powerful voice in the body-positive movement: With 120,000 followers on Instagram and constant traffic on her Tumblr site, readers love her for her fearless message and insights on the benefits of yoga for all bodies. Rejecting the idea that all yogis have to be skinny white women in fancy Lululemon gear, Valeriesize 22, mixed race, and tattooedoffers readers all of the inspiration and guidance they need to become yogis at any size. Yoga has long been one of the most popular fitness trends in the U.S., and the body positivity community is now bigger than ever. The success of TLC's My Big Fat Fabulous Life and model Tess Holliday prove that there's a growing audience of women longing to see themselves represented on the screen and in the pages of books. Big Gal Yoga is perfect for everyone, from yoga novices to more experienced yogis. And while Valerie provides plenty of tips for plus-size yogis, anyone can follow her yoga instruction. Her message of body positivity is also a universal one-no matter the insecurity, Valerie's honest advice and encouragement can help anyone find self-love through yoga.

I took a yoga class designed for plus sized women last fall and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, that particular studio closed, so while I look for another class that suits my needs, I plan to begin practicing again with the help of a growing number of books and other resources by other yogis of size. Along with Jessamyn Stanley, Valerie Sagun is a body-positive warrior yogi who I enjoy following and being inspired by 👍🏽
